Biography
Chedihou Chanyu was the nephew of Guilihu Chanyu and Ichise Chanyu, and he became chanyu in 101 BC. His first act was to return all of the Han dynasty's ambassadors to Emperor Wudi of Han, and Chedihou was given several gifts from Wudi. However, Chedihou refused to pledge allegiance to China and become a Han vassal, and in the 90s BC the Han mounted several expeditions against the Xiongnu. Chedihou later defeated the Han general Li Guangli in battle, and Li Guangli defected to the Xiongnu after his family was imprisoned and executed by the Han for "shamanistic spells". Chedihou died in 96 BC, and Hulugu Chanyu succeeded him.
